Give me an underground laboratory, half a dozen atom-smashers, and a beautiful girl in a diaphanous veil waiting to be turned into a chimpanzee, and I care NOT who writes this nation’s laws. ... S.J. Perelman

I also have two cats, Creeper (so named after the Virginia Creeper Trail where he was found) and Lucky, an emergency foster that never left.

My dog scrappy was homeless and skin and bone when I found him, nursed him back to health.Salem, the cat, arrived the week after my dad passed away. I heard a lovely statement about cats I like to believe is true "Cats are never truly yours, cats will go where they're needed" Salem is lucky to still have fur the amount of petting I gave it when it first arrived

Haze. 8 years old. Most vocal and friendly cat in the world. She loves it when we have company over.

Two beautiful pets

Is Haze the boss? Salem seems to have held its own since it arrived, dogs have got used to him being around.I was shocked to see how brave the little cat was. They all get on now and sleep together sometimes. i thought it was going to be a nightmare but worked out well.

Here's my zebra finches, James van der Beak (the male in the front), Deborah Winger and Feather Locklear (the females in the back). David Fincher has unfortunately passed on...

Finches are awesome. If you give them enough seed and some water, they could care *less* when you leave for a few weeks to go to Burning Man. I almost think they're happier when i'm not here. Zebra finches are noisy little bastards though; society finches have a much calmer chirp and a prettier song. And Goulidan finches are much prettier. But zebras are basically indestructible.

Pretty Birds I've always had the urge to domesticate a Raven, don't know if its sensible with a cat though

I guess I need to take some pix of my wiener, since I can't find any to post except for this one. Here is my rescue dachshund checking out the Feather River:His name is Pepper, but for some odd reason has the names ofMr. ManBeaumanMr. P. BeaumanBeauregard

This is Sonya (Sonya Bear aka Monkey Face). This was at about 8 months. I need to take some now that she is a year old this month.Sonya playing in the creek at the local dog park.Sasha (aka fuzzy-lumpkins) on the left and Eddie Boy on the right. Sasha just sorta lives with us, shes just around here and there, doesn't like to be petted much. Eddie is a lover most of the time. They're both hooked on the C-Nip.

We've had the cats for a few years. Got Eddie just before BMan 2009, got Sasha just after Bman 2010. When we adopted Sonya back in May Eddie didn't realize she was a dog until the first time he got barked at. Didn't see them on the same floor of the house for months. In the last month or so, the cats have convinced Sonya that they are very very scary. They play a game we call king of the stairs- Sonya runs up the stairs, gets hissed at and smacked up, then runs down... then back up the stairs for round 2.

Why don't ya stick your head in that hole and find out? ~pieholePlan for the worst, expect the best. Make the most out of it under any conditions. If you cannot do that you will never enjoy yourself. ~CrispyDave

I also have my dad's two little girl cats, Trixie and Punkin. Tiny ladies, about 6 pounds each. Punkin is a talker but psychotic. Trixie is a little bundle of love. I hate that I have to lock them up in their own bedroom at night and when we are gone, but Oide is a punk bastard and attacks them.

This is Bucky. We found him on our doorstep when we came home from work. We had a fenced in front yard at the time so someone actually dropped him over the fence. He was just a few months old as near as we could tell but healthy and barking at us like he owned the place. So he's about 7 now and he still owns the place. Don't even know what kind of dog he is but it doesn't really matter, He's my bud.

Our horde - we went to the SPCA to adopt 2 siblings, preferably sisters, we ended up walking out with 3 siblings, 2 of them boys.

Curie is at the top, the girl of the litter, below her is Sydney, with Beau lying down at the bottom. Beau is the big one (about 15 pounds), Sydney's about 9 pounds and Curie is around 7 - Sydney looks like the runt with his short legs & extra toes, but Curie has the tiny size.

I have never properly thanked the fly that Curie & Sydney were watching for allowing me to get this picture.

Omg, how cute are all of these below! Smiling ear to ear on what a great thread this is

This is my dog Max. He is part Lab and part Chow and he has a purple tongue. I tell people he drinks Cabernet in his water bowl .... This is in our backyard which is way out in the Oregon forest on a creek. Dog heaven....

Dogs are the leaders of the planet. If you see two life forms, one of them’s making a poop, the other one’s carrying it for him, who would you assume is in charge? " I am a controlled substance". Savannah.
